    Hrm. It is working for me. Slow, but sometimes, just wait a bit longer (even after the red "didn't find anything" message, and the results will pop up). Which shard are you on?
    You need help with simple stuff? https://uo.com/wiki/ultima-online-wiki/ -- Otherwise - can I has your stuff?

    Your location and shard name would be helpful

    It is really slow and turns off for a few minutes more than normal.

    Right now it is Timing out on LS and Atlantic.  Then after a few minutes it may give the results.
    Focus on what you can do, not what you can't.

    on Atlantic just keeps timing out, tryin to stock my venders, using 2 accounts to vender search and having to do it 5-8 times before it finally works.

    Its not working for Auction safes either, usually those work because there are fewer items.

    I had one search result pop up 10 mins after it said it took too long.

    Also trying search for different things on 2 guys.

    Yea, it’s going down again.  Really slow the last couple few nights. Maybe, a little longer than that.  Also, after several successful searches in my keep it thinks I am in the middle of the woods and grays out.

    Vendor search just started working great!  What ever shard just went to maintenance please don't turn it back on!
     :D

    Vendor Search, at least for me, is still working badly.

    Extremely long waiting times which often end up with a timed out error message, results from older queries all of a sudden popping up, after long waiting times and frequent time outs error messages in place of what one is currently trying to research....

    Not to mention, Vendor Search all of a sudden shutting down on me (while I am browsing) and telling me that I must be at a justice region or a safe log-out location (which I am already....) in order to be able to use the Global Vendor Search...... and I need to wait further extra time that the availability of VS restores on my Menu from the greyed-out status.....

    Very, very frustrating. It takes forever to search for a few items.....

    Please, do something to restore functionality and reliability of the Global Vendor Search.

    Thank you.

    Popps generally vendor search works the same way for me when they do maintenance.  It really tics me off when I get that Justice zone message when I am in my keep.  If vendor search is working at all, you can use it if you go to a Justice zone, but sometimes it just goes down and you can’t use it anywhere.  Also, when I log on, most shards have the single red dot for latency during this period.  My shard usually comes up to two or three dots after a short wait.

    I think this game has always worked the way you described when updates are done. Don’t know why this problem associated with maintenance can’ t be fixed. Just know it would have been fixed years ago if that was possible.  I just accept this crap.  Not saying I agree with it but just recognize it’s a part of the game so I can enjoy the parts that sort of work.
